Unfortunately, there’s never a shortage of war in the world. Parts of Europe are on edge over Russia’s occupation of Crimea. Here in America we have phony wars over politics and which fast food brand to shove in our pie holes at breakfast. The war between McDonalds and Taco Bell recently heated to the temperature of flesh searing grease when Taco Bell introduced a breakfast taco. I ate one. I found no resemblance to breakfast or tacos.

Mickey D’s launched a counter offensive by tweeting a picture of Ronald McDonald petting a Chihuahua with the caption, “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.” Vladimir Putin is behaving like his Imperialist Czar and communist aggressor ancestors. A clown and an annoying ankle biting dog are both relics of an advertising age gone by.

My name is E. Curtis Johnson. The real war and the fast food war are both as appetizing as a middle-aged wannabe dictator who likes to have his picture taken while shirtless on horseback.
